I'll bite. The work is better than the website, which is a shame. A good website makes you look forward to the work, you want to see more. In this case, I was dreading the work but surprised that it exceeded the site in creativity and attention to detail, especially type. The logo for the site is terrible, in my opinion. I'm not sure other peoples opinions on this, but I think there should be a clear separation between art and design work shown. Far more of a separation than was given on this site. If you're hoping to use this site to commission new work, why would you link to other designers so openly? It just seems like you're saying "look, here's my competition, some of them might even be better than me." Then again, the site lacks any sort of "marketing" know-how anyway. Clients tend to focus on far more than just your work. They are buying your time and want to know who they're working with, which is missing in action for the site. Clients buy the total package ... the experience. Good luck.
